We Found the Exact Pans Used on “The Great British Bake Off” — And They’re On Major Sale
Much like anyone who watches “The Great British Bake Off,” I am amazed at how contestants can churn out elaborate showstoppers in just a few hours or figure out a bare-bones technical challenge recipe that they’ve never seen before. But what also amazes me is the gorgeous array of bakeware, tools, and appliances they use on the show that make everything look so easy and aesthetically pleasing. While the SMEG fridges are iconic and the Mason Cash mixing bowls are so charming (and editor approved!), there’s one under-the-radar element that has me absolutely mesmerized: their nonstick cookware. Not only have we figured out the exact set they’re using on the show this season, but it’s also on major sale! Just be sure to use code SCORE to claim all of your savings.
Oprah-approved cookware brand GreenPan is behind the impressive nonstick pans that the Season 12 contestants are using. Specifically, it looks like the show has stocked each baking station with the Paris Pro collection, which features the brand’s award-winning, toxin-free ceramic nonstick surface.
This set has everything you need to stock your kitchen, including a casserole pan, two saucepans, a sauté pan, and fry pans in three different sizes. The ceramic surface of each item is incredibly durable — it can even withstand metal utensils. The handles are specially designed to be ergonomic, ensuring a comfortable grip. And since you can safely pop each piece in the oven or stick it under the broiler, this set is extra versatile.
I knew I had to find out what cookware they were using when I watched the Caramel Week episode, noticing that virtually nothing stuck to the sides of the saucepans when the bakers were creating the fillings for their caramel tarts. The mixtures seamlessly pulled from the sides despite containing sticky, gooey caramel. Beautiful!
Not ready to invest in an entire cookware set? Don’t worry, you can still score major savings with this pair of fry pans marked down more than 40 percent. And as any good home chef knows, fry pans are just as important as saucepans when it comes to delicious fillings.
If you have a “Bake Off” fan on your holiday shopping list, these pots and pans are sure to make them feel like they’re right in the tent!
